operation  contrasting valkyrie   
    in  the  sixties. the  central    
  intelligence agency  "cia" release  
   aerosolized  selatenine  over  a   
   jupiter equinox concert, creating  
  the largest secret paradigm shift   
   that the world  has ever seen.   
  
                                          
 the jupiter equinox* concert is  part of 
 a festival in black tickle  arranged  by 
 a group  called epicenter of love. there 
 is   no   entrance  but   visitors   are 
 expected to  help with maintenance. food 
 and  drink  is  shared.  many  bands are 
 playing over  the four day course of the 
 festival, and the stage is open  between 
 scheduled   concerts.   jupiter equinox, 
 while an unknown act, has  a prestigious 
 timeslot at  eight in the evening on the 
 third  day,  which  is  friday.       
                                          
 eight  is  also  when the plane  used to 
 spread  the   aerosol  lifts   off.   it 
 arrives  at the festival about a quarter 
 past,  sound   masked  by  the  concert. 
 around   when   the    first   wave   of 
 selatenine   must   have   reached   the 
 audience, the song comes to a  tense but 
 quiet  movement,  and  the  lead  singer 
 walks   to  the  front  of   the  stage. 
                                          
 she says,  with a  crystalline voice: "i 
 have something to tell  you.  i am not a 
 human  being. i am  not an  animal  or a 
 plant.  i  have been  sent  to deliver a 
 message  to you. a  message of hope. you 
 are not alone.  there  are  other beings 
 in  the  universe.  there  is  life  out 
 there,  life  that  is  reaching  out  a 
 hand. and it's time  to take that  hand. 
 to reach out toward that  hand and  grab 
 it it. it is time to come home. you  are 
 going  home.   you   are   going  home." 
                                          
 the   singer  stands  there  for  a  few 
 moments,  her  hand  raised  in the air, 
 before the  rest  of  the band  kicks in 
 and  the  music builds  to a  crescendo. 
 the  crowd erupts.  and  then  something 
 else  erupts  as  well.  a  concert-goer 
 describes   it:  "suddenly,   the  music 
 seams  broader,  more  colorful.  i  can 
 somehow see  it, and  i feel the  others 
 seeing  it, and i see  it  through their 
 eyes  as  well.  meanwhile i'm  dancing, 
 and i can  feel  my  body as i've  never 
 done before,  i  am aware  of  each cell 
 and  each  molecule,  all  vibrating  in 
 unison.  and  it's  all  going   faster, 
 building  up  to something,  waking up." 
                                          
 people start  forming  circles,  holding 
 hands  and  dancing.  some  are  crying. 
 some are laughing.  some  are screaming. 
                                          
 and  then  - a  flutter - and  something 
 gives.   a   shockwave    of   reversing 
 polarity   in   the  ether,   and   like 
 butterflies  getting  hit by a  burst of 
 wind,  the third eye  opens for everyone 
 in the audience.  and it becomes a chain 
 reaction,  quickly spreading  across the 
 festival area. within  seconds  there is 
 a   global  blackout.   festival   goers 
 regain  their  memories  around  a  week 
 later,  those  in  the  nearby  town  of 
 black tickle   after  a   few  days,  in 
 montreal  for the evening, the  rest  of 
 america  maybe  an  hour.           
                                          
 and  thus,  the   population   of  earth 
 has  kind  of  left  it's  materialistic 
 baseline,   only   that   most   do  not 
 remember                             it. 
                                          
                                          
  
  * there's an interesting aspect to  
   the  "jupiter equinox"  act.  it   
    seems   there  was  never   any   
  jupiter equinox concerts before or  
  after the one in black tickle. the  
   lead  singer  (also  colloquially  
   referred to as jupiter) seemed to  
  immediately  disappear (for a long  
  while she was thought to have been  
  a  cia  agent, but a  later  foia   
  release refuted this). for obvious  
  reasons, many were looking for any  
   trace  of  the  band,  but  none   
   were fruitful.                     
                                      
  recently, however,  some attention  
  has been drawn to juniper helding,  
  a sixteen year old pop singer from  
   england who has a very  striking   
   similarity...
